Advanced Setup—Continued

These settings are set automatically by the Automatic

Speaker Setup function (see page 38).

With these settings, you can adjust the level of each speaker while listening to the test tone so that the volume of each speaker is the same at the listening position.

Notes:

• The speakers cannot be calibrated while the output of the AV receiver is muted or a pair of headphones is connected.

• Because the AV receiver supports THX, the test tone is output at the standard level of 0 dB (abso- lute volume setting 82). If you normally listen at volume settings below this, be careful because the test tone will be much louder.
